Spirit of Vengeance

Twilight used her magic to lift the newspaper into Flamewave's line of sight. "Excuse me, Flamewave." the alicorn started to say, getting the stallion's attention while he ate a small meal. The pony got up and gazed at the paper. "The Servants of Darkness struck again in Fillydelphia. They were about to do what they did to you and put them under mind control for the Dark Army."

"...I see." Flamewave hummed.

The princess cleared her throat, "I know I really shouldn't be asking you these questions, but it's really important."

"Go right ahead." Flamewave agreed to answer.

"When the Servants of Darkness put you under their control, did they give you a set of locations to go to? As in, you head from city to city to gain more minions? Or did that wear off when we freed you?" she wondered to him.

Flamewave pondered, trying to recall as much as he could, "...Hmm..." he hummed, wondering the same thing. Silence was passed along the two ponies for a moment. Twilight hoped that he would still have some knowledge that could benefit her. After all, not onlt could she stop the Dark Army, she could also learn more about the Ghost, who seemed to be stopping them as well at least.

"It's a little hard to remember." Flamewave groaned. He put a hoof to his chin, "But I think I can recall something. Though, I'm not sure if it's correct."

"I'll trust your word as correct." Twilight revealed.

Flamewave hummed again, "Well, from what I could remember, the Servants of Darkness hoped to reawaken the Dark Army in Equestria by city. I believe their next destination after Fillydelphia was supposed to be Manehattan, but I can't be too sure."

Twilight nodded in understanding, "I see. I'm sorry about putting this upon you. We may have to hold off on our lessons until I return. Don't worry, Spike will keep you company if you need somepony to talk to." she added as well.

"Thank you, Princess Twilight. I hope what I said was correct." the stallion exhaled. Twilight then walked upstairs, where she saw Starlight waiting by the door.

"What did he say?" the unicorn wondered.

The alicorn spoke, "He said the Servants of Darkness might be heading for Manehattan. Get the girls, we're heading there as soon as possible." she ordered in a stern tone.

Starlight nodded, "Are we looking for the Ghost as well?"

"Yes."

Robbie walked back into the small shack, having properly disposed of the bodies. 'Hopefully no one else finds out where this is at.' he thought, 'Last thing I need is to get caught.'

The man opened and closed the door behind him, the knob clicking as he moved on. Reyes immediately noticed how small and cramped it was, but he shrugged it off, 'I'm only one man. It will suffice.' he placed a gloved hand on the wall, realizing how worn the place was.

He walked upstairs, the stairs creaking with each small step he took. He hoped to find a place to make a light. Luckily, on the table he flipped, the candle that was blown out was still intact. So, he propped the table back on its legs and placed the candle back on the center of it, he grabbed a small splinter and used it to light the string on the wax, it lighting the room barely.

"...It's a start." Robbie sighed, grabbing a chair and sitting down, pondering his options.

'I'm alone on an alien world that barely knows I exist... The Spirit of Vengeance must've done that.' he put his head in his hands, clearly worn out from wandering aimlessly, 'Hopefully Gabe is alright. Without me there to keep an eye on him...' he sighed. '..I'm sure Coulson's team will keep an eye on him at least. I just want him to be safe.' he wanted to push the feeling aside, but deep down it lingered.

With nothing else to do, Robbie looked around the small room, opening a cabinet, 'Food. Strange food, but it will suffice. This would be a good spot to stay in until I figure out the Servants of Darkness' next move. Even then, it's a short supply.'

He then picked up a newspaper that fell down when he was killing the gangster. A small grin formed on his face when he looked at the content. "The Ghost... Fitting. Seems I made myself a reputation here as well. I didn't want that, but that's what I get for jumping in so soon." he leaned back on the chair while muttering that, his eyes closing before snapping open again.

The man was ready to drift into slumber then and there, but a knock woke him up. Robbie peeked out the window, his eyes narrowing at the cloaked ponies standing outside. 'More of the Darkness cult... Seems they haven't learned their lesson.' he cracked his knuckles as a smirk formed on his face. He held his chain, moving downstairs to perform said lesson.

The door creaked open, Robbie choosing to stand behind it. One of the cloaked ponies spoke, "Do you have what we ordered you to?"

"Uh, yeah." Robbie lied from behind the door, "They're inside."

The three cloaked ponies stepped inside, where the door closed behind them. They were unprepared for Robbie, who was ready to stop them. "You have sins to answer for." he hissed.

"What the hell?"

Robbie flung the chain forward, lighting it on fire, burning one of the ponies to a crisp instantly. "I know of what you've done. You made gangsters kidnap innocent ponies to add to your Dark Army." he knelt down from a beam of magic missing him and uppercutted one of the remaining ponies in the chest, making him wheeze from a sudden loss of air.

The human pushed the pony aside, he then kicked him and shoved him on the ground. "What is your plan?!"

Before he could get an answer, Robbie felt a burning sensation on his back. He turned around, scowling at the unicorn that shot magic at him. "Big mistake on your part." he punched the other pony in the face before facing the culprit, whipping his chain forward, pulling the unicorn toward him. His eyes glowed orange, and he grabbed the back of the pony's head, slamming him through a wall, shattering his skull. Deciding to end him, he repeatedly slammed his head on the wall, he knew he was done when he saw the pony's eyes roll to the back of his head.

"Now... Answer my question. Where are your cronies heading?!" Robbie hissed, choking the remaining pony.

The cloaked stallion gagged, "At sunrise... Ack! The c-city of Manehattan w-will burn! With you as well! Now let me live!"

Robbie smirked, "Sure. Shame you nearly corrupted the innocent. You would've made great bait. I'm here to give vengeance." he used his other hand to choke the pony out, killing him from lack of air. He looked at the room and the small amount of blood on his hands and body, 'I'll clean myself up, then get rid of the bodies. Last thing I need is someone to find this when I'm not here.'

He clenched his fists, 'I'll make sure the Servants of Darkness never harm another pony as long as I'm here. If this is about dark magic, then I need to step in.'

So, Robbie buried the bodies outside the house. He then ate a piece of salad kept fresh. 'At some point I'll return home. I have to. But I'll worry about that part later. Makes me wonder if there is something that can bring me back easily...'
